Taking into account the size of the specimen, the imposing beak and its plumage, and the down of its neck and legs, it is a griffon vulture, common scavenger in the areas of the Mediterranean and the Iberian Peninsula. It is one of the largest birds in Europe together with the ‘Aegypius monachus’ or black vulture (which is the largest raptor), unique in its kind and that lives in areas of Mediterranean forest and pine forests, where it nests.
